In the month prior to writing this blog post, we started our internship at Red Hat and began working on Knative. As such, we have just spent the past month

With that in mind, let's discuss what pain points we have been experiencing. The first is that Knative is a very large project, with many massive repositories.

As a new contributor, it can be very difficult to know how to navigate the codebase to find where to make your change. There is also a lot of "magic" in the
3434
Knative codebase, where you have to name functions in certain ways and/or there is code generation. This makes it really hard to understand where you should
3535
make your changes until you have spent enough time making changes to understand it. There are also some pretty intensive test suites which can be very confusing
3636
to new contributors, so even if you manage to make your change, it can still be a struggle to test it.

4545
have to do is actively learn as you follow along, ask the community questions when you get stuck, and stick with it! Let's talk a little bit more about how you

Whenever there are code samples, actually type it out yourself and try to understand each line of code. We know that copying and pasting would be faster and

definitely easier in the short term, but you might miss out on some of the understanding that way.
